"Extremely grateful for Deborah and Felix. It has been a tough battle over the years with my case against my child’s father. They worked with me and helped me at a time I didn’t know what to do and was down on my luck. Just trying to take care of my daughter and get her braces. If you ever need a lawyer that cares about your situation and will fight for you as their client, then they are your go to. Thank you guys a million times."

"I was in shambles when my ex had me served with divorce papers. Deb and her team stepped in to pick up the pieces of my life and fought hard to get me everything I deserved (and more). I am eternally grateful for her compassion, strength, and determination to right the wrongs done to me over the 30+ year marriage. Deb and Felix are the guardian angels of family law. Thank you for seeing ME! Your gift of mercy and deepest felt empathy has changed my life in ways I could never imagine. God bless you all!"

"My brother was in a very bad place when he got news of the divorce. Thankfully, we found Deb & Felix to advocate for him. He is in a better situation now that everything has been settled. This team restored his humanity, self-respect, and zeal for life. They held our hands through the entire process, walking us through every detail even with the language barrier. The meetings were always warm and inviting. They sincerely cared about his well-being and emotional status, considering his battle with mental illness. They never judged him. We all know divorces can be messy, yet Deb and the team made it as seamless as possible. Thank you for guiding us through this challenging time and helping my brother come out stronger in more ways than one."

"What exceptional lawyers and people! Deb, Felix and Joe are an all star team. Through the 2 year process of the divorce, they remained fully engaged and always on top of every aspect of the case. God bless Deb especially for her prowess, strategic mind, and caring soul. Her resilience carried us through the precarious moments and her creativity lit the the path for a very promising future. No one anticipates a divorce, but if ever you find yourself at the crossroads, Deb and her team are 1000% the best advisors and advocates to have on your side."
